As we are nearly at the end of 2010 here are a few photos from our year.

I lost my Grandma this year. She was 99 and will be really missed. This photo is 5 years old but is the only one I have on my computer. I love you Grandma xx

My Princess

My Princess started reception in school this year and has just turned 5

Phil and I lost quite a bit of weight this year and this is the first time I had worn a dress in over 12 years.

I turned 40 this year and as a suprise my bessie mates hubby took me for a ride on his Harley Davidson. ( I was scared stiff )... This picture above is in one of the disney restaurants. The happy Birthday was made from chocolate.

The said motorbike ride!!!

My boys acting cool in Animal Kingdom

My Princess looking like a real Princess

The love of my life :0)

I had this picture made into a canvas for the wall for my hubby for Christmas

Will taking Kaitlin on a ride at Bushe Gardens

Kaitlin meeting Minnie Mouse for the first time

Our first day at Magic Kingdom. We had a breakfast reservation in the castle so we managed to get in before the crowds which was fab.

I have had a really good year this year and have so many really good memories. 2008 and 2009 weren't that good for us but this year we realised that the most important thing in our lives is our family. We have spent alot of time together doing things and we even eat our evening meal together at the table every night which makes a huge difference. We feel very lucky to have had such a fantastic holiday this year which I can say was our best ever. I feel very grateful that I have such a wonderful family and I love them all to bits.

We had a great Christmas here and I hope anyone reading my blog had a fabulous time too. I got some lovely presents including 2 new charms for my pandora bracelet and my favorite perfume and Ive had a few bargains in the sales too. Im well and truly skint now though and will be sorting stuff out to sell on ebay in the new year to replenish my shopping fund.All the kids had a great time and thankfully they were all really pleased with everything. K had so so much because as well as Christmas its her birthday over the holiday too. She had a disney kidizoom camera as a main present for her birthday and last time I checked she had taken over 200 photos on it already....On to the not so good, I seriously need to start my diet again in the New Year too. I lot over 3 stone last year but I must admit I have put over a stone back on since my holiday in August and I feel awful.

Just a heads up too, Ive applied to be a participant in the Blooming Bear Show in March and I was accepted so I am really pleased. It is an online bear show so you can attend from the comfort of your own home. There is a link at the side of my blog to take you to the site which will be updated with more details as time goes by.

We are experiencing the coldest winter for years. Last week we had snow so the roads and pavements have been really bad and it finally thawed on Saturday when we had lots of rain. This morning we have woken to temperatures of -5 ( was -12 in the night). Like I used to say when I was a kid, Jack Frost has been. Honestly though taking K to school this morning was so scarey. It was like an ice rink everywhere. I hope everyone stays safe.

On to a new bear. I added Robyn to my website last night. I put a sneak peak on here last week. I am really pleased with this design. He has bent legs so can be posed in numerous postions. I have redesigned a pattern I had created quite a few years ago.
